This software is a complete alarm clock that can be added to your GNOME panel. It offers all the necessary features to ensure you wake up on time.
You have the option to choose whether you want to use a unique sound or your favorite music player to notify you when an alarm goes off. Additionally, you can customize whether the sound should be repeated or not. If you prefer, you can even specify a custom command to run instead of predefined media players.
The notification bubble feature lets you choose to have a bubble appear when your alarm goes off. What's more, you can customize the Alarm Applet's appearance as well. You can select whether it shows a label with alarm status or just an icon.
